    Hiking

    Magnificent views of Mount Matro and the Leventina and Blenio Valleys.

    Hiking

    There is a large telecommunications system with a transmission tower on the Matro (the associated cable car is only available to staff) and this is no coincidence, as the summit is one of the elevations with the most extensive, unobstructed views all around.
    Regarding the name: “Matro, mater” are names for foothills, elevations that are not too high. Also called “Poncione Strecuolo” and “Pizzo di Sobrio” in old maps and texts.
